Reading The Autobiography of a Werewolf Hunter was like being witness to a train wreck...bloody, violent, and powerful, you don't want to watch, but you can't help yourself. I found myself skipping over chunks of the book, expecting plot developments that never came, and hoping the author would turn to a more honorable, positive tone, when all that happened was that he took the protagonist deeper and deeper into darkness.
I downloaded the ebook for free from Pixel of Ink. I don't think I'll read the sequel...not my style.

Segments either fly by at the speed of light (in like five pages the main character finds a girl, gets to know her, marries her, has a kid, then both the wife and kid get killed), or linger on really uninteresting not werewolf hunting stuff.

This was tough. For me it was a very hard read. The beginning flowed smooth enough. The ground work was established for a decent plot and then it went pear shaped. The character devolved. There was no cohesiveness for the character to the plot. I get that the author was writing from the standpoint of the character being overtaken by a foreign entity but the result was somewhat difficult to follow. The story was drawn out and in some places torturous to read through. I will say that the end snapped everything into place and like with the character everything became clear but it was a tiresome journey. It gives me hope for the next one.

Sylvester James is a very honest character, and doomed. His feud with the beast is never ending and he wont ever be happy. This story , although totally badass in regards to James' bouts with death and the beast, is also incredibly sad because he signed himself up for a life of misery when he was too young to know any better. If you are into endings that arent necessarily happy, then give this a read.

"Autobiography of a Werewolf Hunter" is the engaging story of a boy whose dad was killed by a werewolf in the 1960s, prompting the boy to train with a Native American holy man/shaman type, Michael, to track and kill the responsible werewolf, or the Beast which is what the protagonist calls all werewolves. We see the boy rise through the ranks of the military, getting captured by the Viet Cong, enduring more loss and suffering, then ending up in jail only to be bailed our by a secret government organization that hires him to hunt a werewolf serial killer.
Although I thought the first half of the book was strong, things started to drag for me towards the middle as it felt like the story was stretched out over too long of a span. Some of the dialogue, particularly that of one French character and a New Orleans voodoo shopkeeper, felt exaggerated and over the top, which I found a tad distracting. For me, it started off a strong book but I didn't feel the same when I finished the book. Still, any die-hard werewolf fiction fans will get a kick out of this novel so it's worth checking out.

WOW!! This book is awesome!!
I was hooked from the very first page!
We follow the life of Logan James, who following the death of his father, sets of in an anger fueled vendetta against...the Beast....
The settings and scenery descriptions are brilliantly done to make you visualize and experience everything that Logan feels/sees etc.
The plot has been created extremely well and has a good solid foundation.
I can't wait to get in to the sequel!!
